Hidden

A family of three has been hiding in and underground bunker for a great length of time, and now, circumstances force them to come out. That's all I'm going to tell you about this film, and all you need to know before you watch it. This little indie horror/thriller from the Duffer brothers who brought us "Stranger Things" has a tight plot, stellar acting, and great direction, especially given the restraints of the set. You've really got to see it to appreciate it - i highly recommend it for genre fans. 4/5

The Giver

This is one in a line of similarly themed movies of late, but this might be the best version of this story I've seen. 4/5

What Masie Knew

This drama about families is just perfectly acted & scripted - I loved the direction they took. Lovely. 4/5

The East

Brit Marling is dynamic in this good but too black & white psych thriller - a bit too lop-sided for me but still okay. 3/5

Metropia

This fascinating animated feature is just gorgeous but suffers a bit from an overly ambiguous plot. Intriguing. 3.5/5
